Destination XL is just for the big guys.

Itís a menís apparel store that opened Tuesday in Grand Chute, and is part of a 58-store national DXL chain that only carries larger sizes.

Store executives figure they can dress about half of the U.S. adult male population by offering clothes that have waistbands starting at 40 inches. The smallest clothing size the store carries is XL. Shoes go up to size 16 in widths to 4E.

The store is located at 1111 Mutual Way, in a strip mall between Roganís Shoes and Hancock Fabrics, just north of Walmart.

DXL is a bigger, better version of Casual Male XL, a big-and-tall shop owned by the same company that had been at 708 N. Casaloma Drive, about a block east. That store closed June 15.

The new DXL store is more than twice the size of the old Casual Male XL. It has an expanded selection of basics, casual clothes and shoes plus designer lines like Tommy Hilfiger and Polo Ralph Lauren. It has an in-house tailor and made-to measure service for custom shirts, suits and sport coats.

The store is open 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Saturday and noon to 6 p.m. on Sunday. More information: www.destinationxl.com or 920-733-2896
